Chapter 730: I Value My Life A Lot Too

“The most courageous of the Sheng family is still the former crown prince. After leaving Huang Yao, you established Zhongteng. You’re like the wave pushing the Yangtze River forward.

“However, even with you here personally, I, Long, am not afraid.”

Who was Third Master Long? All these years in Jianchuan, not once had he ever suffered losses. In the past, he had been able to clean up so many dirty matters. What was this little issue of Huang Yao’s blueprint to him?

“The past me would have fought to death with you had something like this happen to Huang Yao in my time. I could probably come up with hundreds of tricks,” Sheng Xiao said as he sat down in front of Third Master Long.

“However... Now that we are all people with families and mouths to feed, no matter how much of a brat we are, it’s not the suitable thing to do. So today, other than fishing people out, I only want to talk to Third Master Long about something else.”

Sheng Xiao’s eyes were not as simple as Sheng Bowen’s. It took more than just one look to see through his thoughts.

His eyes were complex and he was able to keep his composure. Third Master Long could guess how many people had fallen prey to him.

Therefore, he smiled and nodded. “I, Long, have never been afraid of anyone in Jianchuan for so many years. However, I can’t see through your thoughts. Tell me. I’d like to hear what else you can tell me besides what happened in Huang Yao.”

“I’d like to ask, Third Master Long, why would you want to cooperate with the traitor of the Sheng family?”

Sheng Xiao did not beat around the bush. “Losing the blueprint can be a big or small matter. It’s not impossible to solve it. In the entire Jianchuan, no one would dare to steal Huang Yao’s business, but you did. Why is that?”

“Your brother said he was merely a businessman. Well, so am I. And as a businessman, of course, I must be on the lookout for business opportunities.”

“I believe that this is the reason why you and Sheng Kai are working together. However, I feel that this is very inconsistent with your identity. What kind of person are you? Don’t you know that Sheng Kai wants to take revenge on the Sheng family? Since it’s revenge, he will certainly set up countless traps for the Sheng family to jump into. Being one of them, do you think that you will be able to escape unscathed?”

Third Master Long fell into deep thought after hearing this.

Then, he replied, “How is that possible? How can my production have anything to do with other people’s grudges?”

“If Third Master Long wants to think that way, then don’t blame me for not warning you when you’re targeted by the police in the future.”

“It seems that there’s a hidden meaning behind President Sheng’s words. I, Long, am willing to listen.”

“Sheng Kai betrayed the Sheng family, and Third Master Long spent money to buy a business opportunity. On the surface, there doesn’t seem to be any particular problems. However, Third Master Long, did you know that last night, when we were searching for other imitations, we found diacetylmorphine in several batches of the packaging boxes? I believe that Third Master Long knows better than me what it is.”

When he heard the chemical term, Third Master Long’s expression immediately changed.

“In other words, Sheng Kai didn’t just sell you the blueprints, but also did some business with others to plant this dangerous thing in the boxes. Once someone finds it and reports it, and Huang Yao gets investigated, don’t you think the police would find your meeting with my third brother today awfully suspicious?”

After listening to Sheng Xiao’s analysis, Third Master Long’s expression changed for the worse.

“Third Master Long, do you still think that it doesn’t matter?”

In a fit of anger, Third Master Long slapped the rosewood table.

“No one dares to plot against me. Where are the things now?”

“Third Master Long, don’t worry. You’re innocent, and our Huang Yao is naturally not a place to hide filth. The things, of course, have to be handed over to the police,” Sheng Xiao explained. “We have already exposed this matter and can resolve it privately. However, I feel that Third Master Long should also have the right to know.”

Third Master Long took a sip of his tea. It was quite a while before he asked Sheng Xiao, “You want to rope me in?”

“The paths are different and we don’t conspire together. It’s just that when we punish the mastermind behind this, we hope that Third Master Long will not be the person who stands in the way.”

After Third Master Long heard this, he put down his teacup heavily and even spilled the tea all over the table.

“Since you’ve already thought of a countermeasure, I’ll just watch the show. Don’t worry, there’s always a debtor and a creditor. When your side is done, let me know. I, Long, will also seek justice.”

The old man had been a powerful figure for his entire life.

And yet, he had been played by a young boy. Third Master Long’s pride had taken a hit and he was not one to forgive and forget so easily.

However, he also wanted to verify whether Sheng Xiao’s words were true or false.

Very soon, Cheng Bin came out from behind the rockery after Sheng Xiao left. Of course, he did not know that Sheng Xiao and Tang Yan had a cooperative relationship. He simply hated the Sheng family.

“These rich families are always looking for trouble.”

“Didn’t you do everything because of money?” Third Master Long rolled his eyes at him. “Don’t be in a hurry to take revenge now. Stay by my side and work. I’ll find an opportunity for you.”

“Got it.” Cheng Bin knew that Tang Yan’s current position was not something he could easily shake. He needed a detailed plan and a backer.

“Now, I just want to see how the Sheng family will fight this war.”

..

Why did Sheng Xiao Want to get rid of Third Master Long? Just as he said, it was to have no resistance when dealing with Sheng Kai. If Third Master Long did not know about this in advance, once the police were involved, he might make some false moves to protect himself. Therefore, he needed to make an agreement in advance.

One was an amateur while the other was a big shot. They worked well together.

Mu Qiqi found out about Sheng Xiao’s meeting with Third Master Long that night.

“You knew about Third Master Long’s relationship with Cheng Bin. Why did you go by yourself?”

“Third Brother and Xu Che both came along,” Sheng Xiao replied while taking off his coat. “It’s just a meeting, not a fight. You don’t have to be so paranoid.”

“Nonsense. Third Brother said that his three lawyers were knocked unconscious!” Mu Qiqi chased after Sheng Xiao, “Couldn’t you have told me about this in advance? I’m still so scared even after it’s over.”

“No.”

“So I have to report to you whenever I go to any dangerous places, but not you?”

Sheng Xiao wanted to rip Sheng Bowen’s big mouth off after hearing Mu Qiqi’s words.

“I wouldn’t have gone if I wasn’t confident.” Sheng Xiao hugged the angry little thing from behind and comforted her in a low voice. “I value my life a lot too.”

“Hmph!”

“If anything happens to me, who will spoil you for the rest of your life?” Sheng Xiao pinched the little one’s ear and said, “So, I value my life a lot too, understand?”

Mu Qiqi could not help laughing when she heard this. “I can’t do anything to you. The great CEO usually refrains from sweet talk, but every time you say something nice, I can’t do anything to you.”
